Part Two of the Marquesas being uploaded to facebook as I send this. I'm
told the fibreglass repairs will be finished on Friday, so just the Volvo
mechanic to chase up to check the saildrives. Prop blades have been
ordered from Kiwiprop and should be here by early next week (oh yeah?).
All in all, things are looking up a bit. Obviously not too sure what all
this is going to cost yet (well, I know the maximum it can cost me-sob
sob!)
Looks like we'll be away from Tahiti by the end of the month. The plan
will be Moorea, up to Bora Bora and westwards, probably via Raratonga in
the Southern Cook Islands to the northern Tongan islands, then down to NZ
mid November.
Off to see some traditional Polynesian dancing tonight with Marion & David
from Kilkea and tomorrow there is a big Bastille Day parade with
apparently more local dancers, bands etc. I'll try and upload a short
video of it all, now I've found an internet cafe I can use my computer in
(they charge like wounded bulls here, about US$7.90 per hour, crazy crazy
crazy).
